Surely @fentonsteve, Kitty should just by a Fiio?
Our tortoiseshell is more of an Analogue Warmth kind of moggy. If I had valve amps she’d be fried in no time.
Chunky chips or skinny ones with that fricassee, sir?
Em-purr-or Rosko?
Siamese Bates?
On our occasional summer visits to see the Rays at Tropicana Field, DJ Kitty often appears on the giant screens to “get the crowd going”
